"Us" lyrics

You and I were the last to know
Just how ugly life can show
When lies and money wear the clothes
Of friendship love and even hope

But I pretend to be ok
I always look the other way
But lately I've been trying to break
Out of the mazes you create
With words and accusations made
Towards my sanity, I pray
That I'll no longer be a slave to us

So come with me I'll help you find
An answer for your selfish pride
Before it comes to my demise
And maybe even suicide
I cannot stress just what's at stake
Don't know how much more I can take
With every step a new mistake for us

For us
For us
For us

You and I were the last to know
People come and people go
People always try to steal the show
But never stop to say hello

Now you'll take off without goodbye
And I will take it in my stride
The answer won't quite be the "vibe"
But you'll no longer hear me cry
And maybe I won't have to die
For us
